Hi, Oops, sorry, and thanks Simon. You are correct in that it is the top left, not bottom left of the six pack, right above the Forward Delete key. E T's suggestion of pressing VO-k is also an excellent thing to do. After pressing VO-k, you can press each key to learn what and where it is, and even better, you can press various VO key combinations and VO will announce their function. Press Escape to exit.

They are fn, home and page up along the top row And del end and page down on the bottom row. It's a key to enable multiple functions from the keys on the function row and in other cases. -----Original Message----- From: macvisionaries@googlegroups.com <macvisionaries@googlegroups.com> On Behalf Of Lorie McCloud Sent: Saturday, 9 February 2019 9:54 AM To: macvisionaries@googlegroups.com Subject: Re: menu extras many thanks! can you tell me about the fn key?
